MobiBlu pulls T20 PMP out of the ordinary bin

MobiBlu has certainly managed to turn a few heads with some of its PMPs in the past, but it seems safe to bet that won't be a very common occurance with its new T20 model, which looks to be relying primarily on questionably-sourced images of Wall-E to garner attention. That same-ness also extends down to the player's specs, which include a 2.4-inch WQVGA display, 1GB to 8GB of storage, an FM radio, a voice recorder, and support for all the usual file formats, not to mention some unspecified games. No word on a release 'round here, but those in Korea can apparently grab one right now, with prices topping out at the local equivalent of $200 or so for the 8GB model.

T-Mobile Shadow jog wheel???

[OneLove Posted Sep 25th 2008 12:44PM]

Zune and Ipod had a bastard child.

[Wiigee Posted Sep 24th 2008 8:57PM]

looks a bit Zune-ish

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:12PM]

that's what i was thinking too.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:32PM]

if the thing looked like an ipod, they would title it an ipod clone...

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 25th 2008 5:33AM]

maybe its just another toshiba like the zune is?

[psyclotron Posted Sep 24th 2008 8:59PM]

personally, i won't go below a WWJDVGA rez.

[gonintendo Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:01PM]

well, I'm fine with WQJDVGA,but WWJDVGA doesn't hurt.

Everytime I see phanbouy's avatar, I just want to slap the guy pictured.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:05PM]

We'll have a small celebration for him breaking 5k comments.

[luckylucy Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:46PM]

hehe, ya, anyone know who the person in the avatar is?

[kempcross Posted Sep 24th 2008 11:04PM]

At least his comments are usually somewhat humorous.

[Decoy Posted Sep 24th 2008 11:05PM]

What Would Jobs Do?

[psyclotron Posted Sep 24th 2008 11:19PM]

thanks for the proposition, uber windows fangobbler fred, but i'm not into S&M

[sinai Posted Sep 25th 2008 1:22AM]

you know, i actually used to give phanbouy some credibility in his posts.

not anymore, my friend, not anymore.

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 25th 2008 11:11AM]

TL, the avatar is a guy named Murray from the HBO show Flight of the Conchords.

[psyclotron Posted Sep 25th 2008 9:48AM]

sinai, you've always been a prick so i've never given you any credit

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:05PM]

I gotta ask, why does engadget feel the need to report on things that even they find boring, from companies nobody has ever heard of?

[GadgetTamer Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:17PM]

Because there isn't any good Apple news tonight.

[ustna Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:28PM]

@Taylor

Speak for yourself... I and I'm sure many others here know who MobiBlu is.

[Ishcabible Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:06PM]

They made that cube thing right?

[Wiigee Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:47PM]

they are bored

[luckylucy Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:54PM]

well, they didn't make the cube, but they "re-branded" it

[tinutapori Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:06PM]

I like it.

[JoshC Posted Sep 25th 2008 4:23AM]

me to, decent sze screen nice shape, but for $200 for a 8Gb version i think it's a little expensive. lets hope it drops price when it hits state side.

[flashpoint Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:12PM]

I'm starting to think Clak was right.

[Wiigee Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:48PM]

arent you clak?

[Decoy Posted Sep 24th 2008 11:07PM]

Clak had some fairly good information, however he hid it among rants, ad homs, FUD, and internet aggro. I always imagined him screaming at Engadget through his iMac before each post.

[Kizorblade Posted Sep 25th 2008 4:40AM]

@Decoy

"&()@$! WINDOWS SHIT! OMG! YOU DID JUST NOT SAY THAT. I PWNZ YOU NAO"

I imagined him yelling that.

[Decoy Posted Sep 25th 2008 5:43AM]

HOW IT WORKS.


Clak: This place is full of anti-apple haters, all one sided, tunnel vision, biased morons. Hi, my role is to play the self-righteous "how dare you" guy. I'll make you feel uncomfortable if you say anything negative about Apple. I also want to make you feel stupid for preferring Windows. I'm the Bill O'Reilly of Apple trolls.

Jubie: It makes me laugh, ha! So funny, like about the Zune. Biggest "me-too" product ever, oh I find it hilarious, ho ho ho. My role is to play the "ridicule" guy, which is good, and speaking of good, the Zune is bad! And quite a me-too product! (if I keep repeating this, you might start to believe it)

[(Unverified) Posted Sep 24th 2008 9:41PM]

Besides Wall-E, the image on the unit in the background is one which has simply been lifted from someone's deviantART account. Not sure which user, but I definitely had it as a wallpaper several years ago.

If you are going to make an electronic device in the modern age, you must at least design your own graphics. The people demand production value.

[olpmcg Posted Sep 24th 2008 10:29PM]

Not worthy NOT WORTHY of WALL-E!!! Yea seems like another classic rip off, i cant wait for someone to come out with the next true innovation.

[lr4life Posted Sep 25th 2008 7:35PM]

Zune rip off for sure.

[lr4life Posted Sep 25th 2008 7:37PM]

Zune clone!
